Show me
Show me what it means
to love somebody
show me what it means
to be loved
in that easy back-and-forth
in that natural Grace
to know and to be
to see you with me lovely
Show me how it feels
to love somebody
show me how it feels
to be loved
on the telephone far away
how with our words we play
we say what we mean
we say what we feel
we know what we say
is true and real
show me what it means
to be real
Show me what it means
to love somebody
show me what it means
to be loved
in the silence
in the space
in the light that shines on your face
and your eyes
bright and blue deep
within your heart
I know it’s true
deep within my soul
I know you
Show me how it feels
to love somebody
show me how it feels
to be loved
before the beginning of time
my hand measured
fitted with the glove
of that one who’s known me
who searches for me
who loves me
without ever having met me
the picture of thought
the feel chemistry
Phoenix burnt and reborn,
death salvation resurrection
Thy love shorn
and built and ballasted
stable and real
tested
everything
that one thing
that I prayed for
decades ago
it took time to create
to set in front of me
it’s your promise
it’s your word
your proof
that I’ve been heard
through every hurt
every trial
through hell and denial
your grace
Your countenance
your face
Gazing upon me
let it be
let it be
let it be
